Niue, a sovereign state in free association with New Zealand, uses two official legal tender currencies. The New Zealand Dollar is the circulation currency for daily transactions, while the government also authorises legal tender coins in the Niue Dollar currency for collector's purposes.
A number of mints issue a large variety of commemorative and collector coins under the authority of Niue. These coins are dedicated to historical or general popular culture themes not related to Niue itself. Many of them are in standard bullion sizes - such as one ounce of gold (abbreviated as 1 oz Au, where "Au" comes from the Latin word for gold, Aurum). Many of these feature famous movie characters.
This coin featuring Bugs Bunny is part of a New Zealand Mint series featuring the Chinese Lunar Calendar and is dedicated to the 2023 Year of the Rabbit (22 January 2023 to 9 February 2024).
The Mint says about it:
The well-loved Bugs Bunny shines on this 1oz fine gold coin, to celebrate the 2023 Lunar Year of the Rabbit! Engraved on the reverse is Bugs Bunny wearing traditional Lunar New Year clothing, along with the year 2023. Some relief and texture, using sandblasting and mirror-finish, have been added to further enhance this beautiful design. As this is a legal tender coin, the obverse displays the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ll.
This precious collectible is held inside an acrylic capsule for protection and arrives in a red Looney Tunes-themed box, specially designed to hold this celebratory coin, and lined with black velvet. Shown on the back are the coin’s specifications and a Certificate of Authenticity. You will also find the unique number of the coin in the very limited mintage of 100.
The Years of the Rabbit include: 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, and 2023. |
